The CR-V comes standard with 225/65R17 size tires (225/60R18 for the four-wheel-drive premium version). The redesigned new CR-V is equipped with Michelin LATITUDE Tour series tires, which are designed for off-road use with features like extended mileage and wet-road safety. These tires ensure high mileage performance even under challenging conditions such as heavy loads, rapid braking, hill climbing, and cornering. Below is a brief introduction to the Honda CR-V: 1. The Honda CR-V is a classic urban SUV model produced by Dongfeng Honda Automobile Company. The 2015 CR-V features a sporty and stylish design, paired with Michelin Latitude series SUV tires for excellent handling performance. 2. In terms of power: The Honda CR-V is equipped with recalibrated 2.0 and 2.4 displacement engines. The 2.4 displacement engine offers ample power, quick acceleration, and easy overtaking, while the 2.0 displacement engine has weaker power and slower acceleration.

My 2018 CRV originally came with 235/65 R17 Bridgestone tires, which still have deep treads after 50,000 km. Actually, tire configurations vary significantly across different CRV model years. For example, the latest hybrid top trim uses 235/60 R18 Michelin tires, while older base models came with 215/70 R16 Yokohama tires. The key is to check the tire pressure label on the door B-pillar, which shows the OEM specifications - it's best to follow these when replacing tires. I recommend owners also pay attention to the load index and speed rating. For instance, my 91V marking indicates a load capacity of 615 kg, which is sufficient for daily use. Remember to replace tires in pairs, otherwise uneven wear may occur during driving.

Last year, while helping a relative replace tires for their CRV, I did some research. Common factory tires are fuel-efficient models like Dunlop PT30 or Bridgestone ECOPIA, with specifications varying by model year. Pre-2017 models mostly had 215 width 16-inch wheels, which were upgraded to 17-inch after the 2017 redesign. The exact model can be found most accurately in the owner's manual. For example, in numbers like 235/65R17 104H, 235 is the tread width, 65 is the aspect ratio, R17 refers to the wheel size, 104 represents the load index, and H indicates a maximum speed of 210 km/h. When replacing tires, don't just look at the tread pattern; the speed rating must also match, especially for owners who frequently drive on highways.

As a CRV owner who frequently visits auto repair shops, I've noticed that the original tire configurations come in three tiers: the base model with 215/65 R16 (16-inch rims), the mid-tier with 235/65 R17 (17-inch), and the high-end model with 235/60 R18 (18-inch, exclusive to the hybrid version). The mainstream tire brands are Bridgestone, Yokohama, and Dunlop, which focus on quietness and fuel efficiency. Pay special attention to the XL marking on the tire sidewall, indicating it's a reinforced tire. It's recommended to replace tires when the tread wears down to the warning line or exceeds six years. When replacing tires, avoid opting for cheaper ones with lower load indexes.

During the of my 2020 CRV, it was recorded that it originally came with Yokohama BluEarth AE61 tires, size 235/65 R17 104H. The mechanic mentioned these tires offer moderate grip but are durable, and maintaining tire pressure at 2.3Bar can extend their lifespan. Different batches of vehicles may use different brands, such as early batches equipped with Bridgestone Dueler H/T 849. When replacing tires, pay attention to the production date (four-digit number on the tire sidewall) - tires over one year old are considered stock tires. It's recommended that owners check tread depth quarterly; if it's below 1.6mm, replacement is mandatory, especially for those frequently driving on mountain roads.

According to the CRV manual, there are two tire configurations based on the engine type: the 1.5T gasoline version comes standard with 235/65R17, while the hybrid top trim uses 235/60R18. The factory commonly equips three types of tires: Bridgestone Dueler H/P Sport (good handling but noisy), Yokohama Geolandar G98 (balanced and durable), and Dunlop PT30 (quiet and comfortable). It is recommended that owners keep the original tire parameter label and show it to the technician when replacing tires. Pay attention to checking the spare tire size, which is typically a non-full-size T145/90D16, with a maximum speed not exceeding 80km/h. Regular tire rotation can extend tire life by 20%.
